The daily grind

Article Abstract:

In a bid to increase its audience ratings, the British Broadcasting Corporation Ltd. (BBC) is restructuring its daytime programming. The BBC will focus on revamping its morning schedules, which have failed to gain ratings against ITV's popular programme 'This Morning', which has an audience of around 2.1 million. It is expected that the new schedule will be launched in autumn 1996.
